In reply to the discussion: Some Dems float idea of primary challenge for Ocasio-Cortez [View all]doompatrol39
(428 posts)Why has it taken this long for someone....anyone on our side to get this much traction on explaining to the people what that top marginal tax rates mean? Every time a tax discussion comes up I find myself screaming left and right wondering why our side isn't explaining this very simple concept much more.......simply.
She is doing that, and for that alone everyone on our side, if they are sincere about having an actual discussion about tax rates and not just paying lip service for liberal votes....should thank her.
That's not even touching the fact that her enthusiasm for the process and opening windows to that process is infectious to a lot of people, even ones who may not agree 100% with her on every issue. My very centrist parents, who would in fact be very affected by her plans absolutely love AOC.
We marginalize or demonize her at our party's peril.
